inspired by Ana Mendieta



The concept of spectacle is not a collection of images, but a social relation among people, mediated by images.  It means something to view which can be seen extraordinary or unusual or special notice.  An example of spectacle are influence on our lives and beliefs on what a person does on a daily basis. Technology is somewhat good for everyone to use now a days but it can harm us as well.  People are not admiring a moment that should be look carefully because they are focusing on taking pictures and putting on social media.
This selfie help me to be outdoors and find an area where I can be alone.  I want people to see the area to be dark because I love on how Ana Mendieta has dark and violence.  Looking at Ana Mendieta work gave me the chill because some of her work were with blood.  Other made me feel like there were looking right at me which give me the chill.  My goal was to take a picture looking at camera to give other a weird feeling. Looking around the area I want people to thinking why he is alone in the dark. Ana Mendieta explored her identity as a female emigrant in work that also encompassed photography, film, and sculpture. I wanted the picture to represent me as a male just enough the beauty of nature.  People today are not paying attention on what a place can mean to someone life.  I wanted to take my picture in a park that I have been coming in my childhood. 
Andy Warhol has a different style than Ana Mendieta because she is more focus in nature and the beauty of woman body.  Andy's work seems to be more retro and have a fun energy.  Looking at Ana work,  she is showing naked woman places that have a beautiful view in nature.  She is more violence in in her work and giving people the chill looking at her work.
